Title
Wwall: A Public Water Dispenser System to Motivate Regular Water Intake in the Office Environment
Abstract
Water is an essential nutritional source. Its deficiency negatively influences our mental and physical health. Despite this, people may forget drinking enough water due to the everyday rush in places like office environments. Previously, HCI researchers addressed this problem via developing interactive technologies aimed at motivating regular water intake. However, these technologies heavily rely on giving individual feedback on water intake and self-monitoring as a behavior change strategy. We expanded this existing design space with a new concept: Wwall, a smart water dispenser system which differs from previous examples as it 1) gives collective feedback along with individual feedback via an ambient display, and 2) uses cooperation to motivate regular water intake. In this WIP, we present our design and prototyping process as well as directions for future work
